About the Retreat ➜Many people with facial differences, or caregivers of a child with a craniofacial condition, feel isolated and alone. CCA believes the best antidote is connection. We provide opportunities for meaningful connections through Family Networking, Regional Events, Virtual Support Groups, and the Annual Retreat.
